We are about ready to release LFS/BLFS 10.1. All tickets have been

That said, there are probably issues that still need to be addressed.
If LFS is printed out on paper, it is about 300 pages. If BLFS is

I also have a suggestion, and that would be to add the download URIs
into the "What's new" section, so that someone with the downloads
from the previous release could more easily generate a list of just
the things they need to download for the latest release.
You are right Kevin, we missed that needed text revision, but it is too
late to change it now. We'll get it next time.
